Find the value of 3x+53x+5 and 6+8x6+8x when x=3x=3.

STEP 1

Assumptions
1. The value of x x is given as 3.
2. We need to evaluate two expressions, 3x+5 3x+5 and 6+8x 6+8x , by substituting x x with 3.

STEP 2

Evaluate the first expression 3x+5 3x+5 by substituting x x with 3.
3x+5=3(3)+53x+5 = 3(3)+5

STEP 3

Perform the multiplication in the expression.
3(3)+5=9+53(3)+5 = 9+5

STEP 4

Add the numbers to find the value of the first expression.
9+5=149+5 = 14
The value of the expression 3x+5 3x+5 when x=3 x=3 is 14.

STEP 5

Evaluate the second expression 6+8x 6+8x by substituting x x with 3.
6+8x=6+8(3)6+8x = 6+8(3)

STEP 6

Perform the multiplication in the expression.
6+8(3)=6+246+8(3) = 6+24

STEP 7

Add the numbers to find the value of the second expression.
6+24=306+24 = 30
The value of the expression 6+8x 6+8x when x=3 x=3 is 30.
The solutions are: a) 3x+5=14 3x+5 = 14 b) 6+8x=30 6+8x = 30
